"The Minimum Monument" project è una lettura critica dei monumenti nelle città contemporanee. In pochi minuti di "show", i canoni ufficiali dei monumenti classici vengono invertiti: al posto del protagonista, l'anonima statuina, al posto della solidità della pietra, il ghiaccio effimero, e al posto della scala monumentale, la minimo dimensione dei corpi deperibili.
The Minimum Monument project is a critical reading of the monument in the contemporary cities. In a few-minutes action, the official canons of the monument are inverted: in the place of the hero, the anonym; in the place of the solidity of the stone, the ephemeral ice; in the place of the monumental scale, the minimum scale of the perishable bodies. The project started with solitary figures, later a multitude of small sculptures of ice were placed in public spaces of several cities. The memory is inscribed in the photographic image and shared by everyone. It is no longer reserved to great heroes nor to great monuments. It loses its static condition to gain fluidity in the urban displacement and in the change of state of the water. It concentrates small sculptures of small men, the common men.
